It’s hard to believe after all these years, but the vindictive Nazis at the Department of Justice are getting worse in the way they’re treating peaceful January 6 protesters. 72-year-old Rebecca Lavrenz, a great-grandmother who did nothing more than pray inside the Capitol that day, has just been slapped with the largest and most punitive misdemeanor fine in history.
Meanwhile, some of the political prisoners who entered the Capitol on January 6th have been in jail more than 1,300 days without trial.
Grandma Lavrenz walked inside the Capitol long after the cops had already opened the doors and waved the crowd in. She said some prayers for America, since we had just had a presidential election stolen from us. She walked out. That was all she did.
She didn’t break anything. She didn’t punch any of the obnoxious cops who were brutalizing women and children with flashbang grenades and nightsticks. She didn’t tell anyone else to do anything wrong or illegal.
Some windows at the Capitol were broken on January 6th, mainly by the Antifa plants dressed as Trump supporters that the FBI bused in. Someone in a congressional office came up with the absurd figure of $3 million in damages for those broken windows.
Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui sentenced Grandma Lavrenz to six months of home confinement. Faruqui also slapped Grandma Lavrenz with a $103,000 fine. Faruqui claimed that this was her “share” of the cost to replace the windows she did not break.
Her sentence gets even worse, though. The Soros prosecutors and the judge were infuriated by the praying grandma because she has dared to express her opinion on the way the DOJ has been violating the rights of January 6ers. She’s made appearances on NewsMax, Sebastian Gorka’s podcast, Emeral Robinson’s podcast, and numerous other places.
She has a website and a large following of conservative Christians and Trump supporters. In other words, this little old lady is a THREAT to the Deep State, so they needed to shut her up until after the election.
During her six months of home confinement, Judge Faruqui has banned her from accessing the internet or sending emails to anyone. They shut Steve Bannon up by sending him to prison until after the election, so he can’t communicate with his massive audience. Now they’ve silenced the praying grandma from January 6th until after the election as well.
This violates Rebecca Lavrenz’s free speech rights. It’s absurd that she’s not allowed to criticize her own trial and persecution. She has the right to do that under the First Amendment. It’s also another clear-cut case of election interference by the Biden regime. They’re once again “saving democracy” by preventing the praying grandma from speaking.
There was one bit of good news for the January 6 prisoners. In a completely unrelated case, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that geo-fencing warrants are completely unconstitutional. In a geo-fence warrant, the police send the warrant to Google demanding that they hand over all cellphone data within a certain radius during a certain time.
They’re a type of reverse warrant, where the police don’t have a specific suspect in mind, so they snare all the phone location data of everyone including innocent people who might have been in that area at that time.
The Fifth Circuit ruled that this is blatantly illegal. It would be one thing if the cops have a specific suspect in mind and wanted their cellphone data to prove a case. It’s another thing entirely to grab everyone’s cellphone data and then decide who is a suspect.
Anyway, because of that ruling, January 6 defense attorneys now have another avenue to attack the bogus charges against their clients. Capitol Police and the FBI used more than 5,700 geo-fencing warrants to identify people at the Capitol on January 6th.
Many of the J6ers are now optimistic because it’s getting so close to the election. They’re confident that President Trump will retake the White House and that they’ll be pardoned. They just need to hang in there a few more months.
